Decay Data Evaluation Project (DDEP): Updated decay data evaluations for ²⁴Na, ⁴⁶Sc, ⁵¹Cr, ⁵⁴Mn, ⁵⁷Co, ⁵⁹Fe, ⁸⁸Y, ¹⁹⁸Au

Updated DDEP evaluations have been presented for the decay characteristics of the radionuclides ²⁴Na, ⁴⁶Sc, ⁵¹Cr, ⁵⁴Mn, ⁵⁷Co, ⁵⁹Fe, ⁸⁸Y and ¹⁹⁸Au. Previous DDEP evaluations for these radionuclides were published in the BIPM-5 monographie in 2004. The experimental data published during the intervening period of 2004–2014 were taken into account in the current evaluations as well as other information: new compilations, analyses, and corrections. The updated evaluations are compared to previous results. - Highlights: • We update DDEP evaluations published in 2004. • Re-evaluated decay data are given for ²⁴Na, ⁴⁶Sc, ⁵¹Cr, ⁵⁴Mn, ⁵⁷Co, ⁵⁹Fe, ⁸⁸Y, and ¹⁹⁸Au. • Current evaluations are based on the experimental information published by 2015. • Evaluated total average emission energy corresponds well to Q value for each nuclide.
